I'm toying with the idea for some upgrades as I'm really enjoying my Sport AT What would some of you say is the most bang for the buck? By performance I mean "driving" (handling, power, fuel economy, etc) Thanks

 

well if youre looking in handling, i would say the best bang for the buck mod would be the progress rear sway bar. i dont have it on my car but from what i've heard/read its AMAZING

 

it all depends how much much you want to spend. for handling go with the rear sway bar. for speed go with the jackson racing supercharger or the t1r or hks turbo. simple air intake and full exhaust always helps too.

 

most bang for your buck performance would be boost lol

 

I'm low on funds so I'd say $100 Thanks

 

... I don't know if there really is anything out there for $100.

 

you can get used springs or a used progress rear sway bar for $100.00

honestly, i would save that hundred bux and aim for something higher: coilovers, blitz throttle controller, boost?

 

for less then a 100 bucks you could also do the DIY intake thing.

 

for a little more than $100, nahwz dawg! (N02).

other wise forced injection $/hp is hard to beat.

 

best bang for the buck? sell your fit and get a manual transmision fit

 

or swap in a k20

 

Man a lot of supporters of the rear sway bar... the 24mm front sway bar is a great upgrade option as well. I find it gives a nice feel to the corners.

However all things aside; I found the springs to be the best bang for the buck for me. I run Tanabe GF210's, it is a day and night difference in handeling.

 

Save that money and use it on gas.

 

x2 on save your money. modding a fit for HP #'s is retarded if you dont go forced induction or swap out the L15.

 

i agree. avoid all intake and header upgrades. and only divulge in exhaust mods if you want a nicer looking/sounding axle back.



and get a spring and shock combo, or coilovers. do it right the first time.

 

Well best bang for your buck would be suspension up grades. The rear sway bar is good and probable get a good set of Coilovers. With the Fit, a Auto at that, your going to have to go forced induction if you want any noticeable power gains. My auto Fit with intake and Cat-back exhaust I have not felt any real power gains except for maybe a bit more pep.

 

You can strip out the back seats, carpet and spend no money.

 

actually, that would achieve all of which he was asking for: power, handling, fuel economy. but, it would be the most uncomfortable and noisy daily driver.

i used to drive a striped ef hatch. eventually, the noise got to me and i hated driving it

::EDIT::
before i get my post nit-picked to death -- I AM FULLY AWARE THAT REMOVING SEATS, CARPET, ETC. WILL NOT INCREASE HORSEPOWER ... i meant to imply that shedding the extra weight will yield a slight increase in acceleration

 

^^^^
THIS!

 

completely agree, and :beer: for your avatar, sir
